GASKET 9Y8058 - Caterpillar

In order to view and configure the parameters of the digital voltage regulator, a PC with the Caterpillar PC software is required.Note: Before performing this procedure, study the list of parameters in order to determine the desired parameter and the corresponding range of values. Some parameters can only be viewed by the user and cannot be configured.Note: Have the entire list of parameters available while performing the procedure. See System Operation, "Parameters".The Cat PC software provides the communication link between the voltage regulator and the user. All voltage regulator settings are entered and read through this software. The software provides the option to save the voltage regulator settings in a computer file. The saved files can then be used later in order to configure other units with the same settings.Cat PC software operates with an IBM compatible personnel computer using a Microsoft Windows 95 or later operating system. The operating requirements are listed below:
IBM compatible PC, 486DX2, or faster (100 MHz or higher microprocessor is recommended)
